Existing Texas Instruments distributors to sell combined TI and National product portfolio

DALLAS, Oct. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today announced that effective immediately the existing distributors in its global network will integrate National Semiconductor products onto their line cards. This will expose National products to a number of new distributors, and will ensure that customers all over the world have an extensive authorized channel from which to obtain TI's and National's newly combined portfolio of almost 45,000 analog products. The move follows TI's acquisition of National, which was finalized in late September.

TI also said that all of National's current distribution contracts with Future Electronics will conclude by December 1, 2011.
